The Magnetar Song

If the lengthy story in ProPublica wasn't enough, Magnetar Capital now has to deal with a show tune created about its infamous trade called "Bet Against the American Dream."

The song, written by the guys from Avenue Q, the Tony award-winning musical, was played during a broadcast of This American Life, the popular NPR radio show hosted by Ira Glass. NPR teamed up with ProPublica, which broke the story, for a show on Saturday focused on the hedge fund.

Amazing video this morning out of London, which shows former Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson selling access to her ex-husband Prince Andrew for $750,000. The deal was set up by an undercover reporter from the British tabloid News of the World, who posed as a Middle Eastern tycoon looking for access to the Prince’s network.
